I remember playing this bizarre/dystopian adventure game back in the late 90s. I found it quite enjoyable in my youth, though I never managed to complete it.

Might be fun to play through it for DGC?

Oooh, I remember looking at the box of this game in the store. I never played it though, as I never ended up buying it.

I would love to check it out now!

I have it boxed. It was about 3 euros in the local game store, and I couldn’t pass it after playing it without the cutscenes from one of the piracy CDs. You really miss a lot of the story that way, and had me confused immensely as a young boy.

It’s an interesting take on the point and click adventure game by introducing a doom-like technology fps viewpoint. Full motion cutscenes with “cutting edge” 3d animation.

Id like to bump this game because it’s obscure, rediculous and frankly, quite entertaining.

I actually found this podcast through this post, I didn’t even read this and just went straight to my app to find the episodes on this game. Sadly that’s when I found out it wasn’t there and came back to read that this was only a suggestion 😮‍💨

Then I decided to listen to an episode I think Carmageddon was first and I like the way they explain everything in detail. So now I’m hooked but I would love a Normality episode, there isn’t much on this game and no one ever talks about it. Anyway nice podcast and great post idea!

I think I had a demo of this back in the day, likely from a magazine CD. It was so strange. Yet the early true 3D was mind bending to my graphics obsessed mind.

Now there’s a bunch of podcast episodes about this game. Alot talk about the bad, but for the time it was “normal” I’d like a podcast on this asap! lol still a great podcast tho

Actually I’m playing thru this again on my Xbox Series X as they have that new Retro games app and this is one of the games on there. A little struggle with the controller, but I will gladly push thru that just for the experience on my Xbox!

Looks pretty wild!
Not much like anything else we’ve covered on the club. I reckon it would be great to do an episode on it as well.
